Mark, this list is nice BUT, and it’s a big BUT… I think bobwallace should add the acceptance rate and some other criteria. For example, the service academies are free but with the exception of the Coast Guard Academy require an appointment from a congress person AND are highly selective.

Cooper Union, Olin, and Curtis are extremely highly competitive for admissions.

And as noted already by Bob, many of these are need based admissions.

So…hurdle number one would be to get accepted. The generous financial aid doesn’t do all APPLICANTs any good, only those who are accepted.
